Daddy Issues | Angst

'I just hope I'm not late. Please, God if you hear me, I can't be late. Not now.', I rushed out of my class already speeding up back home. I quickly took my phone dialing the number I was so worried to call.

"Oh, I was just about to call you young lady. I'm waiting, where are you? I need my garden to be fully clean in 2 hours.", I nervously scratched the back of my neck going through the crowd of students all yelling and laughing. "I'm really sorry, I-I just got out of my lesson. I'll be there in 30 minutes.", I heard her loud sigh as she spoke up, "Listen, I'm waiting and you'll be paid but I won't call for your services again. It's the second time this month and your father isn't picking up when I'm calling.", she then angrily hang up.

I tiredly looked up seeing my truck and got in. 'I'll do it, first I'll mow then trim the hedges. Then I'll watch the flowers and water the all place. I'll clean the pavement at the end. You got it girl.', I took a sip of my cold coffee, trying to wake up my entire soul that was screaming for some sleep.

After following every step that I had in mind, the sun was now down and I got back to my truck. I tried calling Kie to see if I could take her shift of work at the Wreck but she didn't pick up so I quickly drove home, big knots forming in my stomach.

I looked at the front door then at the windows trying to see if my father was asleep before slowly swinging the old door open. I immediately heard disgusting sounds coming for his room. Apparently that dickhead had company so I tried to ignore the disgusting gasping and screaming of pleasure and quietly hurried to my room. I took my headphone, a small blanket and the bottle of whiskey I had left under my bed and carefully got back outside to the security of my truck.

I drove to my secret hide out, a small beach in the Cut that was practically deserted at all time and rolled myself up in my rough blanket after putting some music on. I tried to cheer up a bit, listening to some of my favorite song, Tragedy by the Bee Gee. But apparently it wasn't enough. I down the end of the bootle in no time and the world started to relax and shine as it always does when I'm drunk.

I stood up and starting dancing with a inexistent partner. An unnatural smile appeared on my features and a weird laugh escaped my lips when suddenly I saw a black siluate emerged from being a tree.

I was so drunk, I remember continuing dancing without paying attention to it, fearless of who this person could be. When I turned back I faced a dirty blond boy around my age with a swollen lip and a black eye. "That must have hurt. If you wanna kill me, go ahead I'm ready.", the boy seemed shock by my blunt speech.

I took his hand and locked it around my neck. "Go ahead, don't make me wait.", he smiled and a genius laugh collided my hears. "You're a good one.", he said as I looked past him seeing an old van from the distance. "I like your van!", he smiled. "You don't have to yell, I'm right in front of you.", I put my headphone down and looked back up.

After a few second of silence, my curiosity took over, "Why are you here for?", his smile dropped and he looked away. "Okay, I'll go first because I can tell whatever I want, I'm dunk. I' m here to sleep because my bastard of a father is fucking a slut so loud that it makes me wanna puke, you?"

"I-My father beat me up so I'm scared to stay at home. My best friend is on the run and my other two friends don't really want to see me right now so I was originally coming to get high.", I laughed, "That's a good plan, I do the same when my father duff me up. It truly help with the pain, doesn't it?" I sat down quickly followed by the blond.

He nodded before looking back to the sea, "I'm JJ by the way." I put my blanket back around me before answering, "Y/N, it's nice to meet you.", "Yeah, I know you.". I gazed back at him, misunderstanding drowning my eyes. "I'm not a weird guy I promise, it's just that we were always in the same class at school so I learn about your name years ago.", he calmly told me lighting his junt. "I never acknowledged you.", he seemed surprised. "It's weird, even when doing my best, everyone seem to notice me.", I laughed at his statement and a genius smirk appeared on his face.

"I saw you today at school.", he said laying down. He proposed me his junt by I politely refused, refusing to be drunk and high at the same time. "For real? Are you in my class again?", he chuckled looking back at me, "I'm not going to school anymore I was looking for Pope, a friend but everyone starting looking at me and it starting looking like a human wall circling me. Then you busted out of nowhere, not even looking up, passing by me and rushing to the exit like your life depended on it.", I exploded in laughter. "For real, I'm so sorry."

"What was so important that you forget to notice the entire school circling me and looking at me like a total freak?", my smile slowly faded. "I lost one of my main client, I was late to her house and I had so much work to do on her garden in like 2 hours. Really stressful!", JJ seemed surprise. "But you are still a student. Why are you even working?"

"To be useful to my father.", those words hurt, being a tool to my dad hurt. "He raised me with the optic of using me. Using me to get as much money as he can. The first time he talk to me was to tell me he didn't love me. As he said 'You better grow up to be something great to make up for all the damage you've done.' That's what people call slavery.", I dryly chuckled.

"Wow, OK, yours is worse than mine. At least, he tolerates my presence when he's sober. I'm sure he loves me. Just a bit.". After sometimes, I started not answering his question and without knowing it, falling asleep.

When the sun came up, I felt a large warm body curled up in my arms. He stiffened when I moved and cuddled deeper in my chest. I froze and carefully tightened my grip around his being. I looked at my watch; 7:50AM. I smiled, I'm already late. Fuck it, I won't move from this beach.

I closed my eyes again, I fell asleep again. I woke up to the warmth of a blanket and a radio blasting some stupid music. I groaned and turned around diving deeper in the body warmth facing me.

"What time is it?", I felt JJ turned to the side. "12:50AM, I shut your phone down because it wouldn't stop ringing. Sorry.", I sighed and opened my eyes. We were in his van, still at the beach but it was comfier.

"It's fine, it's probably my dad and some costumers of his.", I felt an horrible weight on my shoulders as I thought about all the responsabilités I was running away from by staying in this van. "I'm just so tired.", I felt my cheeks warming up and my eyes started to tear up.

A loud sob escaped my mouth as I shut my eyes. I snorted loudly, drying my eyes and breathing calmly. "Sorry.", I chuckled nervously and tried to escaped his grip. "No, it's fine. Stay!", I froze immediately and locked eyes with him. "You-You said you were tired. Stay and rest. We'll get something to eat later.", I nodded and awkwardly linked back my arms around his waist.

"I like your eyes.", I looked up at his statement, smiling as I realize his attention. "Are seducing me?", I laughed, his cheeks changing to a light tint of pink. "Hmm... Maybe?"
